Public Has Low Opinion Of Trump's Honesty And Judgement

Posted on the 21 January 2018 by Jobsanger





These charts show why Donald Trump continues to have very low approval numbers, and can't seem to improve them. They simply don't trust his honesty or his judgment.
By a 21 point margin, Americans think Trump is not honest and trustworthy. By a 29 point margin, they believe he doesn't listen to and take advice from his advisors. By a 13 point margin, they think he exhibits bad judgment. By a 60 point margin, they think he talks without thinking. And by a 14 point margin, they think he says things that are not correct on purpose.
None of those are attributes anyone would want in a leader of the most powerful nation in the world.
The numbers in the charts above are from the newest Economist / YouGov Poll -- done between January 14th and 16th of a random national sample of 1,500 adults (including 1,311 registered voters), with a 3.3 point margin of error (2.9 points for registered voters).
